22 Dec 11 Adstream To Implement SAP Business One
Solution from Sapphire selected to streamline operations and support global growth
Sapphire is to implement a 27 user SAP Business One solution at Adstream, the world’s leading player in digital advertising technology services, that connects the global advertising community by streamlining the management, organisation, validation and distribution of multichannel content.
Tim Emly, Global Financial Controller at Adstream, explained the requirement for a new back office solution: “The continued growth of Adstream’s global footprint coupled with a lack of standardisation accounting packages in each country – along with the need for faster and more detailed management information, meant that a more substantial and agile financial software system was required to meet the demands of the business.”
He went on to say “We had been in touch with our Sapphire Account Manager for some time, he would meet with us and provide solution information as and when required. When we considered a new finance system he was the first person that came to mind.”
A sister company of Adstream, based in Australia, had been using SAP Business One and found the functionality and level of reporting impressive. They had successfully integrated SAP Business One with a core operating system also in use at Adstream, which gave Tim and the team confidence that integration of SAP Business One with that and other systems would go smoothly.
SAP Business One is an integrated, affordable business management application. It’s a single system that can automate critical business operations, including finance, sales, purchasing, inventory, and manufacturing. And it provides accurate, up-to-the-minute views of business data. SAP Business One is a global solution with multi-currency and multi-lingual functionality that is easy to buy, quick to install, and easy to use.
“With SAP Business One we expect faster reporting; greater control and vision of overseas entities and two-way communication between our core operating and financial systems” stated Tim.
Ian Caswell, Managing Director at Sapphire concludes: “SAP Business One is a truly international solution; users around the world are able to view the same system in their own language, with their local currency. For global organisations such as Adstream it is a great solution as it can meet their needs now and as they continue to grow. We are delighted to be working with this innovative organisation and look forward to supporting them well into the future.”

26 Oct 11 Sapphire Is Moving Up
Sapphire Systems’ New York operation relocates to a new office

Chris O’Connor, Sales Director at Sapphire, commented “This is an exciting move for us and we are definitely glad to have more space!

12 Sep 11 Shakespeare’s Globe to implement SAP Business One
Solution from Sapphire chosen to meet multi-dimensional requirements
Shakespeare’s Globe has selected Sapphire to implement and support a 10 user SAP Business One solution to strengthen operational efficiency and meet advanced reporting requirements.
David Magness, Head of Finance at Shakespeare’s Globe, explained the need to find a new back office system saying “Quite simply the existing accounts system was old – it had been in place for 13 years and we had outgrown it. Shakespeare’s Globe is much more than just the theatre; there is also the exhibition, shop, support function and an education department that covers numerous different activities. The many facets to our business make the accounting quite complex, so a solution that could manage multiple divisions was required.”
A comprehensive review of financial accounting solutions available on the market was undertaken along with a formal tendering process. From a longer list of eight solutions, a short list of SAP Business One and two other market leading solutions was reached.
“SAP Business One stood out thanks to multi-dimensional analysis functionality and the ability to integrate with iDocuments [a system that manages expenses, purchasing and sales invoicing] which will improve document flow through the business” commented David on the decision taken.
“Sapphire was already a corporate partner and showed a great deal of interest in Shakespeare’s Globe with a very professional approach. We really felt that the team that presented SAP Business One understood what we do and our exact requirements – they showed us exactly how to use the solution to meet our needs” said David, adding “The reporting functionality really suited us too, for example we will quickly and easily be able to run reports on Daily Box Office Takings as well as the amount spent on Educational Practitioners for the various courses we run. Management reports can be run on demand on any aspect of our business at summary level with drill down to further analysis and/or transactional level detail as required; this will significantly enhance the timeliness, quality, level of detail, accuracy and availability of our management reporting”.
Looking ahead to when the system is in place David says “We will have far more visibility of the detail behind income and costs. SAP Business One will bring improved efficiency to the finance department and will enhance links between finance and other departments.”
Ian Caswell, Managing Director at Sapphire Systems, added “Sapphire has supported Shakespeare’s Globe for some years now so I am particularly pleased to be working with the team there. With SAP Business One and iDocuments in place they will have a cost effective solution that will facilitate operational efficiency now and well into the future too.”

19 Aug 11 Reservoir Group to implement SAP Business One
Solution from Sapphire selected for multi-currency and intercompany reporting functionality
Sapphire to implement and support SAP Business One at Reservoir Group, an international oilfield services organisation and recognised specialist in the fields of down hole drilling, completion and production and physical and digital data management.
Reservoir Group had a requirement for a single system to roll out across the whole group, to improve the consistency, control and ease of financial accounting. Craig Hutcheon, Group Financial Controller explained: “We operate a ‘buy and build’ model, continually acquiring new companies, so find we have a lot of disparate systems. Crucially, we felt that none of our existing systems could manage the complex, multi-currency requirements of the Group.”
Craig and his team used a balanced scorecard to compare functionality of their five shortlisted solutions, which included SAP Business One, Microsoft AX, Microsoft NAV and Oracle; SAP Business One came out on top.
“SAP Business One and Sapphire performed strongly in key areas including localisations and the availability and suitability of global support” commented Craig.
On the decision to work with Sapphire Craig said “Sapphire actually approached us, we were impressed by their professional approach and responsiveness throughout the process.”
SAP Business One is an integrated, affordable business management application. It’s a single system that can automate critical business operations, including finance, sales, purchasing, inventory, and manufacturing. And it provides accurate, up-to-the-minute views of business data. SAP Business One is a global solution with multi-currency and multi-lingual functionality that is easy to buy, quick to install, and easy to use.
With SAP Business One in place Craig says that the team is looking forward to benefiting from “improved reporting capabilities and dimensions, faster monthly reporting and improved multi-currency and intercompany reporting. Having access from anywhere in the world to accounts – all group ledgers for all companies – was a significant factor in the decision to use SAP Business One.”
Ian Caswell, Managing Director of Sapphire Systems, added: “For global organisations looking for an agile, scalable solution that is truly multi-currency, SAP Business One is a strong fit. Users in different countries can view the same system in their local language and currency, with management having visibility and ease of consolidation across all entities. We are pleased to be working with Reservoir Group and I’m sure the team there will be more than happy with the reporting capabilities they will have post implementation.”

28 Apr 11 All Leisure Group Benefit From Dual currency Reporting
Sapphire to implement Infor FMS SunSystems at tour operator with global requirements
Sapphire is pleased to announce it has been chosen to implement Infor FMS SunSystems for fifteen users, along with the Compleat procurement solution for fifty users, at All Leisure Group, a group of global tour operators.
The organization had grown and All Leisure required a more robust system than the entry level financial accounting solution in place. Due to the more complex requirements, including multi-currency, revenue/cost recognition, consolidation and reporting, All Leisure “Moved up a tier in terms of solutions reviewed” explained Mark Jeffries, Head of Finance at All Leisure. Coda, Microsoft Dynamics, Access and Infor FMS SunSystems were shortlisted.
“The previous system was no longer up to the task” said Mark, “The All Leisure group of companies is much more complex now and we run a high number of foreign exchange transactions. We also wanted to record foreign transactions by dual rates of exchange for the same currency, this SunSystems could do.”
Mark attended a Sapphire seminar on evaluating financial management solutions towards the end of 2009, when he knew they would soon start looking for a new solution. He was aware of Infor FMS SunSystems and wanted to see the latest version. Mark was impressed – both with Sapphire as an organization and at how SunSystems had improved and developed. “Everyone I met from Sapphire was enthusiastic and very personable. They understood our needs and the specific requirements of the travel sector and I felt confident that the on-going working relationship would be positive.”
Infor FMS SunSystems was the best fit for All Leisure’s requirements as it offered a complete accounting package. Mark was also keen to implement a solution that would work well with Microsoft Excel and whereby data could be quickly manipulated on and reported as necessary.
The finance team at All Leisure is looking forward to benefiting “immensely” from detailed analysis with very defined dimensions once Infor FMS SunSystems is live. “Being able to report where the underlying mixed foreign transactions are exchanged at dual rates of exchange is absolutely vital for us and with SunSystems in place this will be no problem. We have four ships; each one needs to be accounted for along with the various different ports that they visit – which means that we work with a lot of different currencies. The level of analysis that we will be able to drill into with SunSystems will allow us to make better, faster management decisions to drive the business forward.”
In addition to Infor FMS SunSystems, All Leisure also opted to implement Compleat as “We were desperately in need of a proper purchase order processing solution, to cover all our offices and ships, one that could be used by non finance staff” said Mark. “We will now have a proper view of all expenditure in advance of invoices coming in. This will help with forward planning so that we can ensure we have all the currencies we need for payments in place.”
Nick Williams, Travel Division Manager at Sapphire, added “We are delighted to be working with Mark and the team at All Leisure and look forward to getting them up and running with SunSystems and Compleat – they will really benefit from the ease of reporting and greater visibility on spend. Flexible reporting to establish revenue and costs for cruise reporting is facilitated by the extensive analysis of SunSystems. And when it comes to the complex multicurrency and revenue recognition requirements of the travel sector SunSystems really delivers.”
